Hi I'm t-bird from central Illinois, I've been birding since moving out to the countryside about 15 yrs ago. The new place we moved
to had numerous blue birds, I became addicted at that moment. I have a run of only 5 boxes keep thinking I'll put up more but
those five boxes have kept me busy. I spotted baltimore orioles last year and got the feeder out. I had two nest last year. And
this year I have 3 pairs of B.Orioles. I have got stock in grape jelly now. Oranges here are sky high in price, they seem happy
to have grape jelly anyway. My question is does anyone know if Orioles nest in the same nest, repairing the old nest? The
nest from last year made it through the winter, and I'm pretty sure it has been rehabilitated this year, but I'm not
seeing the birds flying into it.
